THANKS FOR KEEPING ME COMPANY IN MY OBLIVION
-
whey? isnt that dairy, or am i going to totally change my thought process here on what to avoid. is gluten still out? and where is this Lyme thread i might as well introduce myself here in the next couple days to see what kind of parallels i can make
-
well i have a new focus now. i have a lot of research to do and a lot of tests to go through. i am wondering what i will be eating here...

Then, typically it's antibiotics. It's not like strep-throat where you just go on one abx for two weeks and are done. It's more like syphilis or tuberculosis that requires ongoing treatment (read the details in the Dr. B guidelines). thats so odd--now i want antibiotics after trainig myself to see them as the enemy

suddenly have to pee more hope i did not give the impression. i have had trouble holding my bladder since i was...i can;t remember. it came to a point i stopped drinking fluids to stop peeing so much. theni got thirsty like unquenchably. like i would pound fluids and they would wash right over my tongue and throat and insides, never absorbing, um cooling...
-
alright. lets say i got this Lyme. what are my first steps. consider i am in northwest ohio, will not be flying to NY even if my life depended on it. it's just not going to happen...though...would be a hell of a reason to road trip, which have not done in years. if i could only find some way to get somebody to foot the bill...in all seriousness, what are...
-
OK so what is the endemic area? sorry if i am not reserching myself at the moment but i am balancing this conversation with work. i will take great consideration to google google googl when i get home. i think you might be onto something. appreciating the help with impossible gratuity (however these never hurt). do you think it could be anything else why...
-
OK so you have to be bitten in order to have Lyme? am i correct on that?
-
OK i took a closer and could possibly agree with all 75!!! but i remember something now.... last year year and a half ago i got wicked pains in my thighs as my feet were begining to swell on the top. i mean intense burning or soreness or i cant explain and do not remember fully. keep in mind this was the heart of my rice rice rice here--i remember though...
-
ok i read it real quick...and i took as much as i could in 5 minutes. off the top of my head i do recoginze innumerous symptoms but i seem to do that with every possibility you know. what immediately stands out is i dont ever remember a tick bite or instance where i was just completely sick for an extended period. like i said i have always been pretty strongly...
-
i will check out the thread and all. maybe i should before i answer, but i will do both. what i am wondering now is how to treat this infections or if it is Lymes. how do i cleanse when everything makes it worse. i mean most veggies really take the blood out of my head feeling. most pills of anything wether it be probiotic or pau d'arco or grapefruitseed...
-
your already heading in the right direction. i dont think any celiac wants to look themselves in the mirror. i think the worst thing about living is being trapped...your not going to wake into any other outlet to this place; there is no way around being you here. on that note, YES, be obsessive, be absolutely terrified of that which will be your kryptonite...
-
i had blood work done not sure what they all tested for--at the time it was for anemia--was fine. how do they check for problems in these areas. to answer the drinking questions, i stopped becaus of the gut rot it gave me not to mention the terrible hangovers, the dehydrated feelings the usual awful feeling from drinking. i did not want to come...
-
yes. i really have difficult explaining things like processing the right words...it's easy on here you got all day to come up with one word, but out in reality i tend to be slow, dreamy, seraching; sometimes i get working right and i'm the most logical thing on the planet; everything makes sense and is clear
-
"Have you been diagnosed with celiac disease?" no. i just got insurance and tests will come. in fact, enterolab is in the mail...lets say i know enough that is has been my best attempt at recovery "How long have you been gluten-free?" 8 months?...since 04/07 "So, all your problems are digestive in nature?" they seem to stem from digestive problems...
-
i dont like meds i have never had success, most are rather uncomfortable; the side effects are worse than the pain, and probiotics worked when i first went gluten-free; now they will for one day if i need to clenase you know, but too much (like 3 days in a row) and then i get that hard feeling in my bowels from them so i have to pee and pee all day i hav...
-
i have tried elimination. i had to cleanse with meats and veggies. i can't do fruit! i have rotated and gone through eating things days straight to get an idea of what will happen. maybe i am too critical but everything bothers enough that i dont want to eat anything. i just want something that wont bother and i can heal cuz... let me try to expand on...
-
i dont know what else to try. i dont know where else to go. i dont know what tests to take. i dont know what doctors to ask. i mean as much negativity and as much certainty that these specialists don't have a clue--would it not be in my best interest to come here for advice? i dont know what is bothering me. i have been through everything. Nothing consistently...

you've come to the right place

i'm not sure how the ones that seem the worst on here seem to be the most intelligent and thorough with their discussions and explanations...or how they can even find the energy to post so much...you've the strength of a saint and before they even begin to tell your legend you will hold the inspiration of us all i got to find me a doc, a secialist, someone...
-
alright here goes nothing...i guess one of my more recent concerns is these red hatches. usually they appear right below my chest. almost itchy or irritated, not unbearable. i get the red belly on bad days; the same hatchy redness like a face just raised off a pillow in the afternoon. that concerns me. it comes here and there and does not seem conssitent...
-
that would make sense. i'm just not sure how to pinpoint it. i'm not sure which problem to describe that would make it stand out--whatever this issue could be. on top of that i am not sure how to describe things most of the time. i always get answers that dont help. i think i leave things out or say too much of something i dont need to. i dont know...the...
-
No. i just got insurance. i had a GI doc prescribe Miralax after my endoscopy came back negative (or so they told me); maybe i explained my situation wrong. somehow he got the impression i was stuggling to go and needed assistnace. it seems that might be my problem...i never seem to explain it right to get the answers i need--to anyone; like i said i dont...
-
i dont know what else to try. i dont know where to begin to explain cuz every time i do on here all that i get is well that should not happen. that should not bother you. i dont know what tests to take. i dont know what is bothering me when it is bothering. i have been through every possible food and food combination at the organic market. nothing consistently...
